MEDCAR BUILDING

Hanham & Philp won this project through competitive tender.

It is located near the hospital overlooking South Hagley Park. The building structure is five levels and comprises screw piles, sheet piling, deep grid foundations, tilt panels, steel frame, Comflor and curtain wall members.

The front corner of the building has a curved feature showroom. Hanham & Philp have completed all interior fit-outs to date including Porsche, Café, CCST and the Carpark. During the build Hanham & Philp have liaised with a number of parties including the CDHB, Orion and Christchurch City Council to ensure public safety at all times.

A challenge encountered was that during the project contaminated ground was discovered, Hanham & Philp managed the remediation of this issue.
